Design Wind Loading on a Steel Frame Warehouse - Part 1 of 2

Design Wind Pressures on a Steel Structure Warehouse - AS1170 (Part 1- Wind Pressure on Structural Elements)

This course, includes a full and detailed process of calculating the design wind pressures for structural members and cladding surfaces of the walls and roof of a steel-framed warehouse. The assessment of wind loads for the design of structures is based on Australia/New Zealand standard AS1170.2 however the general concept remains the same for every other code. AS1170 has a very detailed and comprehensive process for calculating wind pressures.There are so many parameters and requirements in the code which often leaves people with some confusion and question marks on how to approach these. This course will provide a clear roadmap for anyone who wants to understand the wind loading process. This course, “Design Wind Pressures on a Steel Structure Warehouse” includes two parts, please make sure to watch both parts to learn the whole design process. IN PART 1 OF THIS COURSE, YOU WILL LEARN ABOUT: The basics and general concepts of wind loading on structures within our practical and real-life example and how to calculate the wind parameters and where in the code we can find these values. These parameters include 1- Regional wind speed for different areas of the country 2- Terrain/height multiplier and explaining the definition of different train categories, 3- Defining Importance level of the buildings and return period of the wind considering the occupancy and use of the building 4- Wind direction multiplier 5- Hill-shape multiplier 6- Shielding multiplier 7- Site wind speed 8- Design wind speed 9- Aerodynamic shape factor for different surfaces or parts of the building 10- External and internal pressure coefficients, area reduction factor, local pressure factor, action combination factor, permeable cladding factor, and dynamic response factor. 11- Calculating wind parameters for windward walls, Leeward walls, sidewalls, roof structure, and cladding surfaces of the walls and roof with respect to wind on 4 major axes of the structure. 12- Design wind pressure on structural elements of the walls and roof for different portal frames of this warehouse for the 4 major axes of the structure. 13- Frictional Drag forces on Roof and Side Walls. 14- Wind pressure changes along the roof and long walls. IN PART 2 OF THIS COURSE, YOU WILL LEARN ABOUT: 1- Calculating design wind pressure on doors and windows and how the size of the opening can impact the net wind pressure on wall and roof surfaces. 2- Calculating design wind pressure on wall claddings and supporting structures and how to calculate localized wind pressures on walls claddings 3- Calculating design wind pressure on roof claddings and supporting structures and how to calculate localized wind pressures on roof claddings. 4- Evaluating the impact of the big openings on internal and net wind pressure on cladding surfaces of the roof and walls. 5- How wind pressure changes along the roof and long walls. 6- Calculating net wind pressure on different areas of the roof. By the end of these two courses, you will learn about the fundamental and full and detailed process of calculating the wind pressure for structural members and claddings surfaces of the walls and roof of a steel-framed warehouse.
